TYPES OF DANCE

 

Solo Step Dancing (with soft shoe) 

These dances can be danced individually and in a soft style shoe. They include reels

and jig.

 

Solo  Step Dancing (with hard shoe)

These dances can be danced individually and in a shoe with a fibre glass tip sole and

heel. They include treble reels, treble jigs and hornpipes

 

Ceili Dancing (in any comfortable shoe)

This type of dancing is very sociable and requires larger numbers of people, varying from 4 – 16 per dance, usually the more the merrier!!!  The steps are basic, easy to learn and repeated consistantly throughout the dance. 

 

All 3 types of dancing are taught in our courses.  However Individual step dancing with hard shoe is only taught after some of the soft shoe dances have been mastered.
